As it is self-evident - Pipes & Sneakers
care a lot about aesthetical things: fashion, art, branding, visuals, and
current topics that enrich our busy lifestyles, but last and certainly not
least – we care about health. Zoe being the “health freak” of the two of us has
had the honour to review the inspiring, beautiful and super healthy products created
by Four Sigma Foods. It is one of the only companies we have come across that
manages to combine all our values – resulting in a healthy and desirable brand.

What is clearly missing on the market is a health
food brand that not only attracts “the stereotypical old hippie” but also
manages to attract a younger clientele. Four Sigma Foods is perfect for
successful people leading a hectic lifestyle from sportsmen, DJ’s, businessmen,
doctors, socialites, parents– to basically anyone leading a busy and demanding
lifestyle like most of us do nowadays – often neglecting the importance of
looking after our mental and physical health.

I don’t want to exaggerate too much, but when I
discovered FSF I was somewhat ecstatic. Not only did the product jump out at me
with its aesthetically pleasing branding (both packaging and the website) – but
generally all its values and its philosophy are harmonious with mine.

Now to the actual products – I tried 2 specific
instant mushrooms (Chaga & Reishi) and 2 blends (Drive and Eazy). My
absolute favourite is the Instant Reishi. It allows me to use my body’s
strength to its fullest potential on a daily basis, combining long hours of
work, sports and socialising. I am caffeine intolerant in the sense that I only
have a caffeine buzz for 10 minutes and then have the heaviest ‘comedowns’ that
never make it worth having a coffee in
the first place. Instant Reishi however, which doesn’t contain caffeine or any
other harsh stimulant ingredient –gently lifts your energy, and also lasts for
a longer time.

Four Sigma Foods is an awesome brand,
consisting of a great team of passionate innovators sharing their knowledge and
happiness with the rest of the world. Basically, anyone caring about health;
natural, stylish, ethical and cool products and wanting to be the best versions
of themselves should give Four Sigma Foods a go.
